Bend a wire hanger into a small hook. Push it down the drain and fish around. You’re aiming for the usual suspects: hair, soap scum, and lint. Pull out what you can and throw it directly in the trash. This single step fixes 80% of slow drains.
If water still pools after these steps, the clog may be deep in the main stack. Stop plunging (you could push it tighter) and call a plumber.
Now go take a shower that actually drains.
